I'm having exactly the same issue, and I tried lsusb command in ubuntu 20.04 running on VM. Got below msg.

jzhang@ubuntu:~$ lsusb
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
Bus 002 Device 004: ID 0e0f:0008 VMware, Inc. VMware Virtual USB Mouse
Bus 002 Device 003: ID 0e0f:0002 VMware, Inc. Virtual USB Hub
Bus 002 Device 002: ID 0e0f:0003 VMware, Inc. Virtual Mouse
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub


The USB port doesn't come to VM.

I am using WIN10 running vmware.
In Windows, i can see VMware USB device has been recognized by Windows.
But cannot detect by Ubuntu in VM.

I also tried ubuntu20.04 in virtualbox. USB extention pack has been installed and it can recognized Merced board as well.
Still cannot make it work for QuickFeather.

I am wondering do I need to install driver for Win10 first?
Although in Windows, I already can use Putty to control the board.

So far, on Win10 with VirtualBox or VMware, there is no solution for the QF, yet. Other people has reported success with running Ubuntu 18.04 WSL.

Okay. I just found that I can use Windows to program the image and also use JLINK to recover the board.

The QuickFeather recovery procedure is tested with Win10 + Jlink and Native Ubuntu 18.04 + Jlink.

Sometimes, a simple reboot of both the host and the virtual machine can resolve USB recognition issues. Ensure that VMware Workstation, VirtualBox, and the host operating system are all updated to the latest versions.


If you are still facing issues after trying these steps, you might want to check the official documentation for VMware or VirtualBox, as well as the support forums, for any specific troubleshooting steps related to USB device recognition with your specific hardware and software configuration.

Some USB devices may not be fully compatible with virtualization software or may require additional drivers. Check the device's documentation or manufacturer's website for compatibility information. If possible, try connecting the USB device to a different USB port on your computer to rule out any issues with the port itself.
